This place is average. The fries were good. It's a simple fare and the kids liked it. My child is allergic to peanuts and she did fine here with the pasta that we ordered. read more

This place can get very busy with tourists in the summer. My complaint is not the food. The salsa omelette is tasty, though the toast seldom is warm. The problem is that the crowds overwhelm the staff and service becomes confused, at best. Tables and floors are not as clean as they could be. Requests for drink refills seem to be lost. There appear to be times when staff is well-trained and other times when they are in a trance. I hope that they can fix their problems. read more

I decided to spend my day off having lunch with my happy people, JCP, PL, and GP. JCP was so accommodating to pick a place that had what I liked to eat, crepes. The restaurant was a bit out of the way for me but nonetheless it was a clean place with funky artwork, friendly people and good service. I had the cheddar cheese apple crepe, an OJ, and I shared a peppermint hot chocolate with PL. The OJ was freshly squeezed, cold, and sweet. JCP's carrot juice was well filtered without any fiber leftovers in her beverage. This helped to go down nice and smooth. The crepe, soft and thin with crispy edges, was filled with slices of apple that were well coated with cinnamon, brown sugar, and cheddar cheese. It was tasty. The hot chocolate was rich, creamy with peppermint essence and a light bitter sweetness. PL said the smell reminded him of "a hot girl on a summer night". Whahaha!!! We had a good time eating and laughing. Honestly I was enjoying the company and really didn't focus my attention too much on the food so I am not sure how fair was my review. Though I ate all my crepe so it had to be decent. I think I need to come back. read more

I tend to take a dim view of everything in Pacifica, and other than Ace Hardware, I never patronize any business in Pedro Point, so it was quite a pleasant surprise for me to discover High Tide. This restaurant is way better, and way cooler, than what you'd expect to find in this town full of mediocre eateries. The first time I came in here, I was looking for a nice salad to go that would be compatible with my weight loss regimen, and boy, did I find what I was looking for! I always order a large "High Tide" salad with grilled chicken or grilled salmon, which is $3.00 extra. This is a darned fine salad, made from fresh, high-quality ingredients, containing feta cheese, orange vinaigrette, carmalized walnuts, and other good things. These salads have made High Tide my new favorite restaurant in Pacifica, and I look forward to sampling their french toast and crepes the next time I want to splurge and reward myself for a good week of weight loss. read more

One of our favorites in Linda Mar Pacifica. This's the second year we've come for breakfast before the Annual Dog Surfing Competition. Fresh squeezed OJ, Crepes eggs. Paninis. It's all good and the people are nice. Service is quick n friendly. read more

READERS DIGEST VERSION: They nickle-and-dime you so the prices end up a bit high. The sandwich i ordered did not come with the extra cost cheese that I ordered and when the cheese was brought to me it was moldy. The sandwich was re-made with more moldy cheese. Try another spot. FULL VERSION: Just went there a couple days ago and didn't have the best experience. I ordered a turkey club and asked to sub mayo for pesto. This cost me 95 cents. I was then asked what kind of cheese I wanted; I went with pepper jack. Apparently sandwiches do not come with cheese so another 95 cents. I now have a $12 club sandwich. A similar story unraveled when my friend ordered a Greek salad and the cashier asked what kind of meat he wanted. My buddy said, "i didn't know it came with any", and the cashier nodded. My buddy asked for the salmon and was surprised later that it cost another $4. When my sandwich arrived I took a few bites before realizing that the cheese that i paid extra for was not inside, so I asked for some. An employee arrived shortly thereafter with a plate with two slices of pepper jack which i put in the sandwich and continued eating. That is until I noticed that the cheese was moldy. I was pretty mad at this point, so I walked upfront and told the cashier what the issue was and did not hide my emotion about it. He apologized and told me that I would get another sandwich right away. When he brought my new sandwich he offered to refill my beer which I accepted. While he was refilling my beer, I checked my sandwich and found that the cheese was yet again moldy. At this point I was over the whole thing so i decided not to even mention it and picked the moldy bits out and ate it, knowing that I would write this review in the following days. All and all the cashier (who I assume was the manager) wasn't at fault and did a good job dealing with the situation, but there is something wrong with the place's communication and food inventory. Also the prices look reasonable until they tack on little charged for things that are normally included. P.S. Having labels on your sugar packet holders saying, "please do not play with sugar packets" is tacky, looks cheap, and does not deter people from doing just that. If anything it enticed me to do it. read more

Man, this is by far the worst customer service I have ever experienced. It was so bad, I had to just walk out. The cashier "Morticia Addams" is a horrible ambassador for this place. When I walked in, she saw me, and completly ignored me. I stood for about 15 minutes waiting to be helped and she never once acknowledged my presence. As I waited, I obeserved how rude she was with other customers. I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THIS PLACE EVER AGAIN! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY. read more

High Tide low flavor. First, let me say I will eventually give this place another shot because we all deserve 2nd chances. Secondly, WHAT THE YELP?! I've heard a couple Linda Mar locals rave about this place so in starting my SLO FOOD movement, I decided to give it a try. Now I wonder why?! Yes, I did rhyme there and that is the only good thing that is coming out of my visit. Because I'm a man on the go, I ordered carryout and it seemed that over the phone the guy had a little attitude. I dismissed it until I got there and found out he had a lot of attitude. Got back home to enjoy my burger and I'm surprised that this place is so close to the water but sells a burger that is ridiculously dry and let's not get on the fries. Okay let's get on the fries because they really smelled like seafood. I don't like to rag on anyone or give a bad yelping review but bad is bad, hopefully a breakfast visit will change my point of view. Also I told a friend about my visit and they stated I ordered the wrong thing but here is my response to that statement "IF YOU CAN'T COOK IT, DON'T PUT IT ON YOUR MENU!" read more

We've been to High Tide about 20-30 times (late review). Until recently, Pacifica has had a dearth of good restaurants (which is slowly changing - thank you, Jeff, God of Biscuits). Two consistent themes in most of the reviews that bear responding to: (1) yes, the food is consistently good; and (2) yes, the hostess doesn't have some fake, syrupy welcome, but she's a nice person, so chill. 1. Food: pretty simple - it's tasty, and importantly, consistently tasty. We lean more towards the savory side of the menu, so don't have a lot to say about the dessert crepes, but from breakfast to burgers, it's pretty damn good. My spouse is (mostly) vegan, and tells me that the veggie burger is good (they have other veg options, too). I like crispy potatoes, so the house potatoes are good. Also, folks we know consistently compliment their breakfasts. I like the fact you get salad and carbs with your food. Finally, be aware - it's a lot of food - you definitely get your money's worth. 2. People: yes, one of the ladies that works there doesn't gush and tell all customers they're skinny, attractive and smart. We seem to have normal/nice conversations with her, so not sure what the issue is (maybe some people need their asses kissed, who knows?). 3. Location/Ambiance: in a small strip mall by the beach, next to Fresh and Easy, so the crowd is mixed with surfers, local Pacificans, people shopping, and folks hanging out in Pacifica for the beach - total mix. Tables in front, inside and in a small patio that they had painted (pretty cool). 4. Other: N/A. Overall: good, consistent food, many options. read more

Had a nice lunch here today... decor is fun and festive, like most Creperie's with the chalk board like menu posted on the wall... with fun destination names for their meal items. i got the FLORENTINE Crepe. it was super tasty with the spinach and cheese and mushroom contents... (I opted out of having cottage cheese inside, i've never been a an) the fries were nice and crispy and it came with a fresh side of greens. I'll be back when I'm in the area, to try out the other crepe choices. nothing beats a good crepe! and hot tea comes in its own steeped teapot for you too. all brewed and warm for your belly. great for the chilly weather along the coast. read more

My first time at High Tide was with one of my best friends and her mom. We decided to grab some brunch after a movie matinee and her mom suggested High Tide. High Tide is a cozy little brunch spot right by the beach and the Linda Mar shopping center. It definitely attracts a lot of locals and visitors to Pacifica. It's located in a small shopping center with some other local shops. Their menu reminds me a lot of Squat & Gobble or Crepevine, both of which I'm a fan of, so just know that there is tons to pick from. I decided on a veggie omelette and I substituted the bread for fruit. The food was very fresh and the omelette definitely hit the spot. Service was kind and efficient - someone always came by to make sure we had enough water and whatever else we needed. If you are in Pacifica and needing a bite to eat, High Tide definitely hits the spot! read more

There was a lot wrong with this restaurant. First off, let's start with the fact that their water heater or pipe or something along that line wasn't working so the water itself was turned off. This brought many questions to mind as to how on earth are places allowed to be open when they don't have running water especially a restaurant! Secondly, after ordering our food and receiving it, it was cold. There was very few people inside so it's hard for me to understand how our food was cold, had it been sitting there for a long time? Who knows! Lastly, I think it is very unprofessional for employees to discuss their dislike of other fellow employees while around customers! Definitely not a classy place to be, cold food and questionable code violations. Although I am from out of town, but I do know that the next time I am in the neighborhood I will be sure to just drive right by this place. No thank you. read more

I got food to go from this place and ordered the steak and eggs.....when I got home the eggs were missing! I called to let them know they forgot it and their only casual suggestion was for me to come back and pick it up. I had picked this up on my way home and live too far away to drive back for some eggs. They could have offered to give me a discount on my next order or something similar but instead they have lost a customer. (I did pay for something I didn't receive!). I drive by this place everyday on my way to/from work and will go out of my way to avoid it. The food is ok, nothing to write home about. What they are really lacking is customer service skills! read more

They upgraded my americano order to double shot +.50$ without asking (way too strong), and I repeated three times no mushrooms for the crepe, and guess what's inside: mushrooms. read more

It all started with that time that my brother Zenas wanted to take me to Nona's or something in Pacifica, and it was closed...so we saw High Tide and decided to go there. Ever since that time, Ive never gone to Nona's cause we've always decided to go to High Tide. Their Philly Cheese was very good, but recently its gone down a bit. Something about the meat not being as juicy as it used to be. But the savory Crepes are something else. With a good amount of cheese and filling. And the spaghetti with meatballs, though I only had a bite it was pretty good too. Please check it out if you haven't and its awful close to the beach so you can walk around after you've had your belly stuffed. read more

I usually don't think of going to High Tide as I don't really like crepes, but it is a go-to for a lot of my P-town friends and they have much more than crepes on their menu. The breakfast burrito is legit, I added avocado and sub'd the chicken apple sausage with bacon the second time I had it and it was excellent. My friends had the sweet crepe with nutella and strawberries, the french toast, and the surf's up omelette. Everything was very good, we all took bites of each others, but I'm partial to the b-burrit. I had their fresh OJ, very refreshing, and my friend got the raspberry mocha and they did latte art on top which gave it a special touch. I like that they have indoor and outdoor seating. I like that they have not one, not two, but three different hot sauces on the table so you don't even have to ask. You also get a healthy side of house potatoes with each dish. One thing I will say that was pretty annoying was when I went for breakfast with my mom and sister and ordered the breakfast burrito, I asked for the English muffin with my meal, and the dude I ordered from tried to explain to me that toast doesn't come with that meal. Except it clearly says it does on the menu. Not that big of a deal, but come on, guy, you work there and you don't know the menu? And that's such a simple thing. And no, ladies and germs, he wasn't new, I had ordered from him in the past. Either way, great location and atmosphere. A nice little gem of Pacifica and right next to Linda Mar Beach so you can walk off your food and enjoy the sights. read more

This place is GREAT! Fairly priced - huge portions - quality ingredients. I love Philly Cheesesteaks and this place does it right (they cook the cheese WITH the meat). Served up on the perfect roll and you get a wonderfully flavorful sandwich. Then - they pile on the fries and a salad! All for $10. It's a deal in my book. Everything I've had on the menu is delicious too! Crepes, sandwiches, classic breakfast grub - it's all good. You can't go wrong here. When we're having fair weather, you can go outside and enjoy the view of Linda Mar Cove while feasting - can't beat it. read more

I am now in food heaven in Pacifica. We would drive over the hill to West Portal (Squat and Cobble) or Burlingame (Crepevine) for these crepes and sandwiches. Now they are down the street. Finally a healthy, low-fat, tasty restaurant in Pacifica. read more

I love this restaurant. The food is always great, and there is one worker in particular who is always extremely kind and very helpful. I wish I could recall his name, but the most I can do is tell you he has a beard. He's very kind. The only reason this restaurants lost two stars for me was I went one morning for breakfast (they open at 8am on weekdays) and the other gentleman I see sometimes (I don't know his name either, all I can say is he has short black hair) strolls in taking his time. The doors did not open until 8:16 am and he did not seem in any hurry to open them, he's also not friendly at all. Other than this worker the restaurant is great and I've never had another problem! read more

My b/f and I stopped in for breakfast a weeks ago and it was good. The best part was sitting under the heat lamps outside in the backyard patio, which has really groovy murals along the walls when it started raining with half sunshine and half fog with a little rainbow thrown in and that was pretty cool! :) The food was above average and the service was a little brisk, but they were packed out solid on a weekend morning with tons of tables and large groups of families and friends, so this family-owned business should be very proud of what they have created here out of the usual bay area crepe-vine/squat and gobble/insert here chalkboard menu franchise spot. We ordered omelettes of various sorts and some coffee and overall, it was solid and huge portions. What I really liked was the huge menu and the fact that they added a whole lot of options to the usual menu of crepes, scrambles, etc. with locals in mind. A good option by the beach! read more

Ive eaten here a couple more times and unfortunately, havent been able to bump up the rating. The food is still good. Today I went in and got the mahi mahi fish and chips. Very good. i think the main reason i cant give more stars is the service. there always seems to be an older couple roaming around the place, making sure you have water and silverware and napkins. they are super attentive and nice. however, all the younger girls behind the counter are not at all concerned with customer service. i was a little unsure ordering the fish and chips so i asked the girl behind the counter if she personally had ever tried it and if she would recommend it or not. she rolled her eyes and said "all the food here is good". while i agree with her, i was shocked at her attitude. we were never offered a refill on our water through our meal, which i plowed through before we even got our food. food wise-really good. definitely worth the trip. service wise-expect moody teenagers taking your order. read more

Reminded me of Squat and Gobble which I love. A little pricey considering you have to order your food at a counter and don't really have a dedicated "server" but that was expected so no big deal. Food was tasty. I had the Italian Crepe and my husband had a basic breakfast plate. He loved the chicken apple sausage. We enjoyed the enclosed back patio seating with cute murals on the walls. Great for us since we had our kids in tow. Will visit again! read more

High Tide Cafe and Crepery - Italian Crepe Breakfast - Creperies Near Me - Pacifica, California

I love this place, the food is awesome and the atmosphere is casual, but not noisy or obnoxious. The best thing I like about the food is that it doesnt have it seems like it is fresh, especially all the greenery and tomatoes- it isn't like that petrified pretend produce other places have. As far as attitude, think that other reviewer Mary B needs to understand that if you go to a family run business and ask one of the relatives what plate is good, it's going to be understood in a different way by someone who is 1) part of a family run business and 2), an important one here-from another culture. I guess I got over wanting super-fake-cheerful help a long time ago. I'm not dating them, what do I care if they have adopted the American 'Wheee!' type attitude? I don't. We're pleasant enough to them, they're pleasant enough to us. Good enough. For me, what is priority is !) getting what I ordered in a 2)timely fashion, and 3)having the end result be yummy food, and they do all of these things well. I would rather any restaurant simply just do those three things right than be all rah-rah cheerful yet mess everything up. read more

I really, really, wanted to like this place and I've been there several times. Great idea for a crepery near Pacifica beach. But I don't think I will be going anymore. When it first opened, the service was completely chaotic and disorganized. I figured it would get better as they got their workflow mastered. It improved a bit, but it's still not great. If you order food, they will bring it out, but if you have to ask for anything else while you're sitting at your table, you're lucky if you get it. They have difficulty with large crowds. The crepes are pretty good. I usually got the florentine, which I enjoyed, but it wasn't anything special. The rest of the menu I tried was pretty average. The last time I was here, I ordered an egg scramble. I waited for a long time and when it came, it was ice cold!! I told the waiter and he took it back (did you not notice you were serving a cold plate of eggs?) When it came back, it was the same plate that had been put in the microwave... incredibly tacky. Sorry High Tide, you just don't do it for me. read more

I've had a few mediocre visits here without updating you so I'll give you what I've unfortunately started to see here. The service here has slowed down considerably since I started coming here. And Sunday afternoon, after most of the lunch crowd should have dissipated, we had not one but two really poor dishes that were caused by this. After nearly 1/2 hour of waiting for their normally very good Chicken pesto sandwich with house fries and the fish taco platter, we were served with a tepid dry chicken breast, cold fish and less-than-fresh greens. Our front deck table was never wiped down or bused, we had to ask one of the few-and-far-between waiters to check on our order and yet neither he or anyone else came to check on the quality of our dishes. If they did, they would have realized that the dishes had been sitting out for too long and we could have sent them back. The prior time I had a dry Coastside burger that clearly was not prepared well and served promptly. When they do get it right (e.g. the crepes) it can be excellent, but lately, their service has impacted the quality of their food preparation to where I am hesitant now to recommend them. They are, at this point, hit or miss. read more

Zoom and I stopped by after a morning walk on a foggy Saturday. The layout, look of the menu board, and the names of the various dishes reminded me very much of the Bean Bag on Divis in SF. Loved having dog friendly seating out front. Counter staff was very attentive and brought me another cup of coffee as a refill. The savory Florentine crepe was quickly prepared and very fresh. Lots of food for a reasonable amount of cash. Great coffee and espresso selection. I have a feeling that this will be my new favorite breakfast place. I am stunned that they are open until 10pm on Friday and Saturday! I have often wanted an after-dinner coffee house source. I look forward to trying them out then with a dessert crepe: Nutella and strawberries, what could be better? They also offer kids menu items for $3.95. read more

Loved the pancakes, service, and the whole experience. Apple & Cheese pancake is so yummy

Crepe was so so, trash all over floors, garbage bins full. Would not come back. read more

High Tide Cafe and Crepery - Really... - Creperies Near Me - Pacifica, California

Horrible service - staff at the counter ignores you, we waited in the short line (about five people) for 30 full minutes and then another 20 for the food. Food was ok (except for the fish tacos, which were subpar), but not good enough to make up for the wait read more

I love me a good crepe and this place did not disappoint. I came here with my friend and her Mom on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Walking into this bright and cheerful cafe was a warm relief. We placed our order at the front counter and then took a seat in front of the window. They have a nice variety of sweet and savory crepes. I went with the Florentine which had spinach, mushrooms, caramelized onions and cottage cheese. The crepes come with a side of the fries or potatoes and a side of greens. The crepe was perfection and super filling. Next time I'm going to create my own sweet crepe - yum yum. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food they put on the plate. Another reason to love Pacifica! read more

Stopped in on a cold and foggy Pacifica night. Our group was glad to find that they had some warm food other than crepes. Had florentine crepe with added chicken. The extra protein did the trick. Others did not add chicken with their savory crepes and felt that the food was a little light and lacking substance. The panini caprese had mixed reviews in that there was just not much to the sandwich. Worth checking out if you are in crepe or sandwich mood. Most crepes and entrees are around $10 read more

This place is obviously very new, rooftop structures are being worked on still. It is NOT right off highway 1, but rather off San Pedro, opposite side of Linda Mar. You will not find it casually driving down highway 1. Given that, I wonder how their business does. But no matter, they were open, and I was starving. Ordered nutella/strawberry crepe and french toast. The dishes, much like the decor, were fancy yet minimalist, justifying that you are paying for something other than just fancified eggs and flour. And yes, I find this a bit overpriced but then I don't remember a single crepe place that I thought otherwise. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that it is a fad, something that's got a more elegant image than the less refined American style pancakes. French toast was good, not runny, not dry, no leftover egg around the crust, not too sweet, allowing the powdered sugar on top to do its job. What was important to me was that it was quite warm when it came to me, for which I was grateful because it took them a minute to make my two items. The crepe was a crepe, I didn't exactly get anything special so there was nothing special about it. It was much smaller than I'm used to, but the texture of the crepe itself was quite nice. The outer edge was a bit dry but I'm blaming the amount of time it was sitting while I was inhaling the french toast. I could see the server raising an eyebrow at seeing me by myself. The cashier must have thought I was ordering for two people, as he asked me if I was ok with just one drink. But I inhaled it all, and was fully satisfied, albeit with two people's worth of food according to them. Total was $15.xx. An expensive breakfast, for sure, but this is by no means a diner. The fancy presentation intimidated me into eating everything with a fork and knife, which meant precious nutella wasted and leftover on the plate, which I tried my best to sop up (belatedly thinking I should have saved one piece of french toast for this). I tried to tidy up as much of my mess as possible (that place is way too clean for me) and brought my plates to them, the least I could do. I think it was a double surprise for them, as I had cleared both plates. Don't people know how to eat? The food is good, but expensive, and not portioned for the big appetites. You have to know where it is in order to find it. I wasn't sure whether I wanted to give this place a high rating or not, but bottom line is (as always) the quality of the food. Hence my rating. read more

Had the strawberry mix crepe. Loved that there were walnuts. The breakfast potatoes were perfection. Great service, even better location.

If you are in Pacifica, definitely come here for breakfast or lunch. They have a wide selection of bagel sandwiches, scrambles, omelets, pancakes, and crepes. The sandwiches looked good too. Let's just say I wanted to order everything place has very cute decor and they do have outside seating. You order and pay first before you get seated. It's a cute place for a date or small groups. The first time I came here, I got the low tide scramble to go. It was amazing and came with potatoes and toast, the usual. I also got a mocha, which was really good too. The second time, I got the pacific crepe which had salmon, cheese, and spinach. It also came with sides of salad and house potatoes. The last time I came here, I got the turkey blt club sandwich, which was totally worth it. It came with salad and fries. You definitely get enough food for the price! I highly recommend this place! read more

Pleasant lunch experience today. Friendly staff and delicious food delivered on time we ordered a sandwich, burger and crepe and everything came out well. They have sufficient vegetarian choices, which we were happy about. The place is spacious and located at a convenient spot in town. read more

See all

I had higher expectations based on their Yelp reviews. However, the food here was just okay. I've had much better crepes elsewhere. There wasn't much to choose from on the menu of savory crepes. I went for the Sunrise crepe, which is grilled chicken apple sausage with scrambled eggs, green onions, provolone cheese and salsa fresca. The combination sounds delicious. However, it was just missing a little something extra. It was decent but it could've used a little kick in the flavor department. I enjoyed my food though. The potatoes side was okay but it could've used some spices. I also felt that mine were a little over fried. It was very crunchy. I couldn't taste much of the potatoes. The side salad is decent and the lettuce was fresh. I also ordered a hot chocolate and there was barely any chocolate taste in it. It just tasted mostly of milk. Very disappointing. read more

This is a breath of fresh air for Pacifica when it comes to restaurants. Though the restaurant itself is a bit small, the decor is vibrant with colorful paintings. Prices are very reasonable and the food is delicious. My favorite dishes are the strawberry and nutella crepe and the chicken pesto crepe with house potatoes and salad....always hits the spot! My only gripe is the lack of table service which shouldn't be an issue because the place isn't humongous. Don't get me wrong, the employees there are nice but don't come thirsty because you'll be lucky to get one refill. That's a big deal to me and that's the only reason they didn't get that last star. Overall...great food, don't miss out! read more

We had crepes on a weekday morning. I had the Florentine with spinach and my companion had the Chicken Pesto. Mine was very good but hers was as good as it gets. Potatoes were exceptional, excellent coffee, reasonable price. What else do you need? read more

Hmmm... this place was a bit of a letdown for our Sunday brunch. Food was oversalted and lacking on taste... service was slow, inefficient and not particularly friendly... atmosphere was crowded and busy, though we eventually scored an indoor table for our group of four. Reading all these glowing reviews, I feel i must've caught it on an off-day. Or maybe the standards for brunch in Pacific are extraordinarily low. No one in my group was particularly impressed with their food, they said the coffee was horrible, and we waited a very, very long time for our food. So, not surprisingly, nothing about my experience at High Side has me craving another visit. But, if you do go, the crepes looked like the better option (I ordered an omelette). read more

High Tide never disappoints! Just like its cousin- Crepevine- the menu has sooo many choices and it's always good. I was extremely happy when it opened since Pacifica needs some more food choices. I love the crepes, salads, sandwiches, coffee, etc! It's a great go-to in Pacifica. I have always found the servers to be helpful and friendly. Some people have criticized the staff, but some are on the older side and a little old school so cut them some slack. Sometimes when you go somewhere with a smile on your face and a friendly attitude, you'll get it back. Just sayin'! read more
